This is me in a nutshell! At heart I am very helpful and love to teach people things or just help out new people. But destiny......... oh destiny.... you... just.. You just turn me into a raging hater and I now hate ANYONE that asks for help. Let me put it this way. I am very very good at running a successful raid on normal or hard in about an hour. I lead crucible teams to victory that stretch 10 plus games. Now top that off with my level 30 and you get people constantly wanting help! Now how about this, get 50 active destiny friends that all beg you to run them in the raid. Then add in the hundreds of friends requests and messages I get every time I enter a public place. And to top that off I get a pig fat pile of sucky scrubs! I have helped hundreds of people beat the raid and even watched a fresh level 26 run the raid for the very first time after a week of playing and get the boots, chest and gloves as well as the Raid Scout Rifle in his first attempt! Now when this has happened to you come back here and tell me that you cant find helpful people. Ever since I hit level 30 the amount of beggars are astonishing. I have honestly lost my drive to help anyone unless it benefits me! /end rant

  • Funny thing... I haven't had random invites really and I am level 30. I wear my armor proud at the tower and sometimes get an inspect. But I also have a level 25-27 (depending on the armor I'm wearing) character and I get the crap spammed out of me!!! People are funny that way I guess... or maybe its because I'm a girl and people don't think I am legit? Personally I am perfectly capable of pulling my weight. All my friends that need help ask me all the time to backpack them and I am always willing to help, but I don't like being taken advantage of every week. I hate that I sometimes have to hide offline from my friends. I think about when I got the game how hard I had to work to level up not only 1but 2 characters. Why can't people do it themselves? I did it on my own. Sure I had help from friends, but we were all the same level and were all struggling together and having fun doing it. Now it feels like work. I feel like I am so busy with some of my friends (beggars really lol) that I don't have time to do the things I want to do. I'm not a hater to anyone, but honestly, sometimes I just don't have time for people. I enjoy playing the game and I WANT to have fun, not backpack or grind for someone else.

    agreed with you Ajaani Goldmane ! even at 28 you're just getting savage messages/invites (psn) and/or ingame invite because of your lvl (tired to receive friend invites when i don't even know the person and no messages...serious guys stop that shit). i already rushed 4 nightmare in a day, too boring + in 2 raids in a row with newgamers so this means, explain everything, wipe x100 and a raid that turn into [rec] movie for around 4h -.- People want help because they DON'T want to think/try alone under their "it's a social multiplayer game" excuse. This is making crazy. My question is : you guys (ppl that ALWAYS need help, event to go to toilets) always asking high lvl to help you with your low ones ? why? d'ont tell me it isnt to rush the storyline bosses or waves because your guys are tired to do them over and over, same deal with low lvl contracts...? easier to ask an high lvl to one shot them than trying by yourself huh ? So sorry but : i am agree that we are already wasting our time playing that shity game, but it seems you guys love when it's faster. (you can also calling me hater, idc ^^)

  • lmao armchair generals - as soon as i read that I remembered my last experience with one - hahaha he tried to get 3 of us to do a strike and i was gonna help them just to help but he started trying to pick apart my play style - even told me that the gun I was using was stupid and useless and i have to change it or he wouldnt help with that part - he actually took the time to look through my gear, see the stats that "he would never use" (one of them was the agility stat which i like to use on my scout rifle) - i told him to go F*CK himself and me n the other random he picked up left - lol this is my char and i bought this game - ill use whatever -blamming- weapon i want

  • I hear ya, ever since I hit level 30. The amount of random invites from people in the tower/ people on friends ( don't mind helping my friends) list asking me to help with raiding or weeklys has increased. I don't mind doing it a few times a week. But I login after Tuesday. (I finish raid nightfalls on all characters on tuesday) to do bounties and advance faction rep. Why do I want to spend it wiping in the vault for no rewards. If your going to randomly invite please send at least a message first or something. I don't like to be a snob, but after you get all your gear from the vault there isn't a lot of incentive to go back besides the shards and energies on your first runs of the week.
